E) Opinions and comments

Picture sharing: Personally and honestly, I did not want to to see such event like the above picture happen again. Burning and destruction not only cause people’s lives, also wasting money and time to rebuild. I do not care if it is man-made because the accident had occurred already. Be brief, I hope we have a safe industry.
